A gamma camera includes means for the localization of scintillations produced under the effect of a gamma radiation in a scintillator crystal, the localization means including an array of photomultiplier tubes with gain control obtained by means of calibrated light pulses, and a localization circuit wherein each photomultiplier tube is connected, firstly, through a diode called a resolution diode, to a weighting circuit comprising a network of resistors connected to output adders and, secondly, to a linearizing circuit giving a signal called a linearity signal. The linearizing circuit also gives, for a duration at least equal to the duration of the calibrated light pulses, a pulse to inhibit the resolution diode with respect to the electrical pulses delivered by the photomultiplier tube in response to the light pulses.
